I hope Nevin isn’t part of the youth movement.  I want good players for that.

He deserved the chance by earning it, I like that. Let’s give him some time & see what he does. Def not blown away by any Elias trades so far though. Bradish best trade? Liked Mateo waiver claim. Pedro. Santander/ Wells picks. He needs to be evaluating existing prospects and the ones they feel won’t make it, trade for assets. That’s what good orgs do, no?

Nevin is hardly an inspiring call up.  However, I have no problem with him getting at bats over the guys that are currently here and not producing.

If he can play average defense at 3B, I think he should be given every chance to stay there. Now of course Gunnar and Westburg are better prospects, but they aren't ready yet. Nevin is. I think he has some potential. We'll see.

Nevin has a AAA OPS of .737 and in AA he was .744.    I don’t see much potential there.   I’d be happy for him to prove me wrong.

I see that, but Nevin also has mlb bloodlines which Yas has shown can transform a poor prospect into a good one at a late age. Phil Nevin was the #1 overall pick in 1994 and had a long career. Its not impossible that he could improve into a good player.

Obviously the pro performances in their early 20's they have differentiated from each other, but regular plug that in their draft class, Tyler Nevin 5.29.1997 and Ryan Mountcastle 2.18.1997 were approximately the same guy.

Except that Nevin was a few months younger and got 50% more in Bonus.

Santander not in the lineup Roch said not sure hurt or rest day 

There have been lots of times this season when, in a close game, the Orioles had RISP and one of their crappy hitters coming up, and I looked at the bench for a possible pinch hitter to find the cupboard familiarly bare. (Kind of like when you look in the refrigerator for something to eat or drink, don't see anything appealing, but look again an hour later even though you know nothing better will have shown up in the interim.)

I wonder whether Hyde's desire to have a more capable pinch hitter on the bench is partly responsible for the starter days off we're seeing.

    • You’re right, he was not optioned in 2022, but he was first optioned September 8, 2021 by the Blue Jays. It’s in the extra rows of latest transactions on his player page: https://www.mlb.com/player/bryan-baker-641329 I use the Roster Resource page on Fangraphs, which shows he’s on his last option this year: https://www.fangraphs.com/roster-resource/depth-charts/orioles I initially didn’t check when he was first optioned, just assumed it was 2022, but turns out it was 2021. Regardless, he’ll be out of options next year. 
    • Any thoughts on who that “Verlander” like player could be? I would have said Alcantara but he doesn’t have a larger contract and he is hurt. I can’t identify that kind of player out there right now. None of the obvious selling teams have any really good pitchers. Maybe Berrios or Kikuchi if the Jays decide to sell? But Kikuchi isn’t expensive and is Berios really an ace? Sonny Gray? But the Cards are actually slightly over .500. I just can’t seem to find that kind of guy out there.
    • I think the Yankees series is very simple. Try to have nobody on base when Judge and Soto come to the plate. Get to there bullpen early. A lot easier said than done.
    • and youre persona is to ask or give multiple questions and answers to the same narrative. No quality starts? How bout seven starts with a 1.91 ERA and a whip slightly above one. OK I get it everybody waiting for it blowup, but honestly all things being equal why would be matching Suarez against Suarez so youre criticism of our Saurez is not as good as stat wise the best pitcher in the game so far. And in addition a quality start is some stat from a generation age that nobody pays attention to. No doubt the phillies getting full value for the buck on Saurez (5 mil). were paying league min. I'll take it 
    • Urias and Santander are slower than Rutschman.  O'Hearn is actually faster than Hays and Mountcastle. At least according to statcast sprint speed which isn't an exact analog to base stealing ability. https://baseballsavant.mlb.com/leaderboard/sprint_speed?min_season=2024&max_season=2024&position=&team=BAL&min=10
    • Hopefully the O's took notes on the Red Sox exposing Trevino on Sunday night. Anyone not named McCann, Rutschman, and O'hearn - if you get on base, just run. 
    • I just read a take on his changeup that loved it - thought it might help him be a "reverse splits" kind of RH middle reliever. Right now the Orioles have a bunch of lefties though should Coulombe end up okay.
